This patchset implements existing pmdinfogen logic in Python, replaces
and removes the old code. The goals of rewriting are:
* easier maintenance by using a more high-level language,
* simpler build process without host application and libelf,
* foundation for adding Windows support.
Travis CI script is adjusted to install python3-pyelftools, but other CI
systems may need similar tweaking. Particularly, testing on FreeBSD and
big-endian targets is desired.
